Estimating parameters of factor analysis model maximum likelihood method)) by using EM algorithm with application [PDF]
Expectation maximization algorithm (EM) is used to create estimator with the same qualities of maximum likelihood Estimator taking into consideration the existence of two types of data, Data viewing (observed data) and hidden data (missing data), in this

SQUAREM: An R Package for Off-the-Shelf Acceleration of EM, MM and Other EM-Like Monotone Algorithms
We discuss the R package SQUAREM for accelerating iterative algorithms which exhibit slow, monotone convergence. These include the well-known expectation-maximization algorithm, majorize-minimize (MM), and other EM-like algorithms such as expectation ...

Regression Analysis of Cure Model with Generalised Weibull Distribution
Cure models are of special attention when all of the study subjects do not experience the event of interest even after long follow-up time. Many researchers have used exponential, gamma and Weibull distribution in the latency part of parametric cure ...

logbin: An R Package for Relative Risk Regression Using the Log-Binomial Model
Relative risk regression using a log-link binomial generalized linear model (GLM) is an important tool for the analysis of binary outcomes. However, Fisher scoring, which is the standard method for fitting GLMs in statistical software, may have ...

Joint lifetime modeling with matrix distributions
Acyclic phase-type (PH) distributions have been a popular tool in survival analysis, thanks to their natural interpretation in terms of aging toward its inevitable absorption.

Determination of Load Equivalency Factors by Statistical Analysis of Weigh-In-Motion Data
The load equivalency factors for pavement design currently in use by the Hungarian standard have been developed using Weigh-in-Motion data obtained during the first few years of operations after installing some 30 measuring sites in Hungary in 1996.

Variable selection in finite mixture of median regression models using skew-normal distribution
A regression model with skew-normal errors provides a useful extension for traditional normal regression models when the data involve asymmetric outcomes.

An EM algorithm for dynamic SPECT
In this paper we present two variants of the EM algorithm for dynamic SPECT imaging. A version based on compartmental modeling which fits a sum of exponentials and a more general approach allowing for arbitrary decaying activities. The underlying probabilistic models are discussed and the incomplete and complete data spaces are shown to be physically ...
